On Rodney Stuckey’s progress

I caught up with Rodney Stuckey last weekend to talk about how he’s adjusting to the NBA so far. From HOOPSWORLD: Stuckey has made his share of mistakes - he’s shooting just 35.7% from the field and has as many turnovers as assists - but he’s maintained a positive attitude. While…

One Last Stab at the Duhon Effect: It's Not Just Kirk

[From the Diaries. Hopefully this turns out to be a kind of eulogy ;-) -Matt] The Duhon Effect is something often discussed here at Blog-a-Bull, but it's worth discussing again. With it's end in sight, I thought I'd get in one last diary while it's still relevant.  I know the Kirk stuff is…

Baron Mic'd Up

Baron Davis agreed to be mic'd up when he sat out the 2nd preseason game against the Lakers. Nellie basically sat his starters so you can hear him, Jax, and Al chatting it up. They even show up with a little dance. Hilarious. It's all from the Warriors Training Camp blog: During the Warriors'…

Rasheed’s lavatorial advice to Cheikh

Krista Jahnke got one of the best post-game quotes you’ll read all season for the Detroit Free Press: After the game, Rasheed Wallace joked that if Samb weighed 175 when the team drafted him in 2006, “he weighs 176 now.” “Cheikh’s still light in the chops,”…

2007 Preseason Game 2

In bullet point form. Boxscore here: www.nba.com/games/20071011/TELNYK/boxscore.html?gamestatus=3 To start the game, the Knicks defense was pretty bad (Marbury, Crawford, Richardson, Lee, and Randolph). Zach was pretty poor on the block, getting muscled by Marcus Fizer. According to my notes,…

Game 1: Postgame Observations

The first pre-season game for the Knicks tipped off this evening in Columbia, SC against the Sixers. Living as I do in Columbia, around the corner from the Colonial Center no less, I strolled on up, bought a ticket and settled in for the first action of the season. I had three main questions in…

Lee Injures Curry to Get More Playing Time

According to the NY Times, Eddy Curry suffered a shoulder injury in practice. Supposedly he has full range of motion, but there is pain.

$11.6M Part III: Why this Means the Knicks Will Continue to Stink

If you haven’t check out Part I and Part II. In Part II I made a case for how the Anucha Brown Sauders verdict (as well as the handling of Don Chaney’s dismissal) illustrates a fatal flaw–contempt–in Thomas’ decision making style. My point is simply that contempt (a…

$11.6M Part II: What This Means for the Franchise

YouTube Tuesday: Meaningful Meaninglessness

Okay okay okay. It’s all meaningless. But the fact of the matter is it’s all that we have until sweet, delicious GSoM Night (shameless plug) lands. And while the preseason is meaningless in terms of the win/loss column, it is a very small amount of time where coaches can safely test out the…
